I have a subway commute to and from work every day. Used to be, I’d see people around me reading newspapers, books, or heaven forbid even talking to each other. These days, everyone’s eyes are on their phones, iPads or Kindles. This got me to wondering what portable electronics our readers carry around. Tell us after the page break.

Chalk up one more victory for Apple. According to reports, Microsoft is about to pull the plug on the Zune.
These days, many Blu-ray releases come with Digital Copies that you can download to watch on a computer or portable device. When you get a disc that has one of these, do you actually use it?
Nintendo has a reputation as a fairly closed-off company. It isn’t great in supporting third-party developers, and it has historically been awful with online play. However, Nintendo is doing things a bit differently with the 3DS.

In these days when print publishing is facing enormous threat of obsolescence from the likes of e-readers, iPads and so forth, some authors still have a strong attachment to the traditional medium of books on paper. In his previous novels, Jonathan Safran Foer has often played with fonts and page layouts to interact with the ways a reader follows his storytelling.
